I
stare at my phone then back in the mirror. No
way. It can’t be, can it? My brain counts backward. Four weeks. Nah, no
chance. I was alone four weeks ago. See,
overreacting as usual. Wait…

What was I doing two weeks ago?

A
memory creeps into my brain. Oh, I totally remember what I was doing. My cheeks
flush at the vision now playing out in my head. That was one hell of a
night…and morning…and following afternoon. I vaguely remember champagne, whip
cream and… holy shit, handcuffs? A
loud, boisterous laugh escapes my mouth. Yep, one hell of a night. Could it be? Could I be?

My
heartbeat starts to accelerate, as the reality of the situation hits me head
on. Oh my God. I totally am. It’s only been three months since things have been
good. Are we ready for this? Is he ready? Shit…

Am
I ready?

` My
arm accidentally runs against my chest. Goddamn
that hurts.

Yep, better get ready.

***

My
feet take brisk steps as I make my way to Jules apartment. I don’t think I have
ever walked so fast in my life, my impending fate exciting me to the core.

A
light sweat breaks out across my forehead the closer I get to my destination,
the crisp fall air doing nothing to calm the excitement radiating from my
body. As I approach the building, I nod
my head in a familiar gesture to the doorman and then head over to the
elevator. Once inside I press the floor and wait for the doors to close. My
foot nervously taps until the elevator arrives on Jules floor. Heading down the
hall to her apartment, I knock once before Jules yells for me to come inside.

I’m
greeted by a foul smell permeating through the air when I walk inside her apartment
and my stomach turns over. Why is she
cooking again? I’ve noticed a trend over the last few months. The happier I
become, the more distant Jules appears, her eyes looking more and more hollow
as the days pass. She often seems tired, worn out. Now, the tell-tale signs
that something is amiss hangs in the air, a baking monstrosity gone wrong.
Jules only bakes when she needs to think and, unfortunately, she has been
baking a lot.

“Jules,
where are you?”

“Ava?
What are you doing here?” Her voice is far off, echoing through the hallway
that leads to her bedroom.

“I’m
late,”

About the Author

Ava Harrison is a New Yorker, born
and bred.

When she’s not journaling her life,
you can find her window shopping, cooking dinner for her family, or curled up
on her couch reading a book.

Blade’s rebirth into the world became something we truly weren’t prepared for. And I felt guilty. Blaming myself for not getting to Lara in time.

She was gone. Nature’s Destiny was grieving.

In the midst of our woes the battle was brewing. Incubi kept coming. Hell beasts were slaying. And the demon master was another step closer to winning.

With an army of supernatural beings in my arsenal I was optimistic that we were enough. We had the prophecy and my fortitudo on our side.

Whatever happened there was one thing I knew for certain.

Excerpt:

The beast taunted me, stalked me like I was its prey. Its coal-like skin, straight from the mouth of hell, sizzled brightly with streaks of orange. The lava of its home. I never stood a chance in this war, I was one wolf against an army of demons; they kept me distracted long enough to ensure there was nothing I could do to jeopardise their hostile takeover. I soon learned that distraction was their greatest tactic, their only worthwhile weapon. But still, there were little acts of heroism I could partake in; chained and bound in a cage granted me little freedom. I was the hell beasts’ toy, to scratch, to bite, to chase when dull moments had them bored. Compared to my torment, I was sure death would be a gift as inviting as a freshly picked bouquet of flowers. I no longer wanted to endure such heinous, criminal, apocalyptic affairs. I wished for death, and the devil laughed in my face.

Author Bio:

I’ve always lived a life based on my imagination, from hopeless dreams of romance to concocting alternate realities involving supernaturals. I’m completely fascinated with anything hero-related, and often speculate which superpower I’d possess. I haven’t settled on one yet.

I was born in England, and currently reside in Wales, UK. I love to write, and most days you’ll find me happily tapping away at the computer whilst in my pyjama-clad bubble. I also spend my time reading, and if that isn’t enough I’m often in the kitchen baking up a treat.

Deeds has just
spent the last few weeks jonesing after a woman he only knows as Hotlips.
Apparently pissing off a female can be rather entertaining from the safety of a
text and their witty banter has left the President of Broken Deeds MC wishing
for more.

The annoying, yet
funny, communication comes to an end when they meet face to face. Lynn is the
sister of Zack, current President of Areion Fury MC. Brought up the daughter of
an MC President, Lynn is hell bent on not being a biker’s bitch.

When an enemy of
Broken Deeds MC comes to play, Deeds is willing to give his last breath
protecting what he claims is his. Deeds, a former MMA fighter, will need to
revive his old fighter skills to protect his woman. Will it be enough to bring
their enemy down or will he not only lose his only love but also his life?

Zack’s spent his whole life loving just one woman—Belle—only
to have her walk out of his life and go half way across the world. But three
years later, her unexpected return is stirring up feelings that never died, and
Zack’s ready to do whatever it takes to get her back.

Belle has never gotten over Zack, but she has
secrets—secrets she knows could hurt those closest to her, Zack included. When
an old enemy returns and wants what he thinks is already his for the taking,
she knows it’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

With so much more than just their love on the line, will
Zack and Belle manage to come together as one and pull through or will their
past and their enemies tear them apart?

I am loyal, but I will
betray you.
I am strong, but I have scars.
I am an angel, but the devil.
I met her when I was sixteen and she was a breath of fresh air. She swooped in,
making me smile. But then she left, taking my next breath with her.
Her smile could light up a room, making my black heart pitter patter.
I found her again ten years later, with a syringe in her
arm.
Blood coming from between her legs.
She was broken and I was glad she was broken. She wouldn't think less of me and
my damaged ways.
